lol That has been in my thoughts, too. I need to be at the Scottish Rite at least a half hour before others to warm up and get set up. I figured about 6:30 to pipe in the haggis?

That sounds about right to me I'll try to call the reverend and see what he has to say today.

Well today I got the menu/program printed up. Looking forward to it.

Participation Lyrics ( I have about 18 printed)

Let Kings and courtiers rise and fa',
This world has mony turns,
But brightly beams aboon them a', the star o' Rabbie Burns.
*******************************
Come now, gather now, here where the flowers grow,
White is the blossom as the snow on the ben.
Hear now, freedom's call, we'll make a solemn vow,
Now, by the Roses of Prince Charlie.
********************************
And we'll all go together, to pluck wild mountain thyme.
All around the bloomin' heather. Will ye go, Lassie go?

So to make sure this is for January 25th @ 6:30. I'll probably be running a few minutes late, if that's the case feel free to consume all of the haggis before my arrival. Anyone up for a run to Georgetown after (depending on the end of these festivities) to catch Hunting McLeod and the SOKS debut of their new piper? I recall there was that one hot blond constantly checking me out last year...

Hello gents,

C U there!
